Saturday the 29th - Koninginnedag (Queen's Day)
celebrations, with the Queen in Leiden (my home town).
Avoided the "fun" by doing a bit of hacking at Cistron. Made
a
preliminary update of the
X.25
patch for netbase, and had a lot of fun and
disappointments trying to use non-standard PostScript fonts
with lout. Learned a bit about using ATM files, and
understand the need for projects like the
GNU FontManager. In
the end, everything looked great in gv, but the HP printer
decided to use Courier instead for all but its built-in
fonts, even though I embedded the fonts using psutils'
includeres. PostScript isn't always as nice as it seems :-(

New Advogato Features

New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser
code is live. It needs further work but already handles most
markup better than the original parser.
